Dionte Christmas, the former Temple basketball star whom the 76ers cut from their roster Wednesday, was arrested in North Philadelphia last night, police officials told the Daily News.

Christmas was stopped by Highway Patrol Officers Dave Marcellino and Ivan Rosado on Nedro Avenue near Broad Street about 7:30 p.m. for driving erratically in a car with heavily tinted windows, said Highway Patrol Capt. Michael Cochrane.

Christmas was driving without a license, and the officers found a Hi-Point 9mm semiautomatic handgun under the driver’s seat, Cochrane said. The weapon was loaded with seven rounds.
